This week was a tough week for me. I barley found time to attend practice but was able to squeeze it in. Tuesday I was with Carlos. Throughout the class we went into chaturanga and focused a lot on those positions. What was different this week then in his previous class I attended was that we spent a long time in my opinion at the end of the class meditating.I'd say roughly the last 15 minutes of the class was meditating. Also what I noticed this week was that there was no "white noise/music" playing in the background and listening to all of the people in the gym working out and dropping weights constantly on the other side of the wall was kind of distracting. Maybe next week I,' choose to attend Sandy's morning class at 9:00am to prevent as much of noise distractions.
As this is my final blogpost, I'd like to reflect on this great experience. Between the karma project, essays, and the yoga classes I attended throughout the semester I have had a new appreciation to the emotional, spiritual, and physical benefits from yoga. I not only have felt more relaxed and rested, but my anxiety seems to have diminished because of practicing. This class I went to this week was similar to the previous classes. Sandy focused on the crow position and sirsasana. Everyone in class this week have been going to her classes for a few months now so there were no newbies. She was trying to let us hone these positions. Overall this class has been a wonderful experience and I've actually decided to declare a holistic health minor now because of this. Because I am a nursing major, I had only been exposed to the biomedical approach to healthcare. I now have a new interest in the alternative and holistic health approach. Have a great summer!
